I can't believe that half of the year is gone.  Wow.  The 15th annual Reno celebration of the arts called Artown is almost ready to begin.  This is a month long series of activities and events in the Reno area that showcase the arts.  There is something for everyone at Artown and the best part is most of the event are free.  The events include music, dance, visual arts, and performances.  For more information of this great event go to www.renoisartown.com.  We hope to see you at some of these great events.

Last evening we attended the Lake Tahoe Music Festival at Old Greenwood just outside Truckee, CA.  This is the festivals 27th year and it just keeps getting better.  The festival is a 501 (c) non-profit organization that provides music from Bach to Blues and Beyond.  Money raised is used to create educational and performance opportunities for aspiring young musicians.  Last night the performance was by Huey Lewis and the News.  They have always been a great band and have a huge following in the bay area.  This concert rocked!

Following is a list of the remaining concerts:

August 1st - Boz Scaggs - Old Greenwood Resort

August 6th - The Yellowjackets featuring Mike Stern - Homewood Ski Resort

August 8th - Festival Finale - Reno Philharmonic Orchestra - Homewood Ski Resort

If you are in the Reno-Tahoe area around this time you need to check these concerts out.  The are great and support a really good cause.
